Let's be honest - as fun as Oscar season is, the Honest Posters are more so.

The Shiznit's annual takedown of all the films in contention has not disappointed with Call Me by Your Name, The Post and All the Money in the World among the titles in the firing line.

Leading the 2018 Oscars pack is Guillermo del Toro fantasy The Shape of Water with 13 nominations while Christopher Nolan's Dunkirk sits at eight and Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri has seven (find the full list of nominees here).

Check here to see last year's equally as hilarious batch.

Call Me By Your Name

Dunkirk

I, Tonya

Lady Bird

Phantom Thread

The 2018 nominations were announced yesterday (23 January) by Andy Serkis and Tiffany Haddish. Many have been hailing the Best Director category in particular which saw nominations for first-time filmmakers Greta Gerwig (Lady Bird) and Jordan Peele (Get Out) whose recognition we called "a win for diversity and creativity."

Rachel Morrison became the first ever female nominee in the category of Best Cinematography for her work on Netflix film Mudbound which also saw Mary J. Blige earn a Best Supporting Actress nomination alongside frontrunners Allison Janney (I, Tonya) and Laurie Metcalf (Lady Bird).

Last year saw Moonlight take home Best Picture following a blunder that saw La La Land incorrectly named as the winner.
